Tooth Colored Fillings

How is a tooth colored filling placed?

The tooth structure is prepared for the filling. An adhesive is painted on the tooth. A curing light is used to make the adhesive layer firm. The composite resin is layered into the prepared tooth as a putty-like substance. The curing light is used to make the filling strong and hard. The filling is polished to comfort.
